Diana embarked on her journey with the Red Cross in 2019, driven by her dedication to making a difference. Beginning as a Volunteer Representative, she swiftly demonstrated her unwavering dedication, earning a well-deserved promotion to the role of SoCal BVWE Supervisor. In this capacity, Diana took charge of the entire Southern California Blood Donor Ambassador program, overseeing a dedicated team that spans Los Angeles County, San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange County.
Her profound insights into community outreach and engagement translated into the implementation of innovative strategies and initiatives to boost volunteer engagement and retention. Her outstanding contributions go beyond her immediate responsibilities, as she actively participates in the VIDA Resource Group, was a key contributor in the inaugural Emerging LEADers 2022 cohort and spearheaded the BVWE professional advancement series.
Diana has a Master of Public Administration and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science. Her experiences extend beyond the Red Cross, as she has collaborated with organizations such as the LA County Economic Development Corporation, Green Latinos and Chicana Latina Foundation.
